World Religion – Atheism
WORLD RELIGIONS ATHEISMTask 1.Watch the YouTube video Richard Dawkins & Ricky Gervais on Religion (15 minutes)https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dsDxN33xvL0Ricky Gervais argues that religious people believe in the God to which their culture introduces them and do not believe in the gods of the other cultures/ religions. Therefore, religious people are almost atheists. An atheist just happens to believe in one God less than they do. Do you agree with Gervais? Why or why not?Task 2.Stephen Prothero in God is Not One (pp. 322 323) argues that the New Atheists (which could include Richard Dawkins from the first video) tend to think in a manner similar to that of religious fundamentalists. What does Prothero believe they have in common and do you agree or not?
